Original title: Gunner announced that Aubameyang will no longer serve as captain, two consecutive captains have been dismissed

On the evening of December 14, Beijing time, the Premier League Arsenal Club officially announced that Aubameyang will no longer be the team captain and will not participate in the game against West Ham United in the early hours of Thursday morning Beijing time. So far, Arsenal has not announced the candidates for the new captain.

Arsenal officials stated: “After last week’s disciplinary violations, Aubameyang will no longer be the captain of the team, and he will not be included in the squad for the game against West Ham. We hope that all players, Especially the captain, able to work in accordance with the rules and standards set by us. We will focus on tomorrow’s game.”

Before the start of the last round against Southampton, Arsenal coach Arteta confirmed that the reason why Aubameyang failed to make the roster was because he violated the team’s discipline, “Unfortunately, ( Aubameyang did not make the list) because of a violation of the team’s discipline. I think we have always had a consensus that there are some issues that cannot be discussed. As a club, we have to set some standards.”

Arsenal told team reporter Charles Watts that Aubameyang had learned that his captain’s armband had been deprived on Monday local time.

It is worth mentioning that this is the second consecutive captain to be stripped of the armband by Arsenal. In November 2019, the then captain Xhaka was deprived of the captain’s armband by the then Gunners coach Emery. The direct reason was that Xhaka had a conflict with the fans in the stands when he was replaced. After that, Aubameyang took over as captain.Return to Sohu to see more
